Hold'em table

J4 offsuit is marginal, but on the button in a three-handed game it is a reasonable open. A modest raise takes advantage of position while pressuring the blinds.

J7 offsuit is too weak to defend out of position against a button open.

84 offsuit is far too weak to defend the big blind against a 2.5x raise, especially out of position with poor playability and dominated equity. Folding saves the extra 150 chips for better spots.

54 offsuit is too weak to open profitably even from the button in 3-handed play.

Heads-up vs the BB, T5o is too good to fold with only 50 more to call, but calling out of position with a weak hand is unattractive; a small iso-raise builds fold equity and initiative.

J♠4♣ is weak, but heads-up I have favorable pot odds and can continue to the small blind’s raise without inflating the pot further.

As the preflop raiser first to act on a K-Q-3 board, a half-pot continuation bet leverages my range advantage and fold equity; I can easily fold to a check-raise and give up on later streets if called without improvement.

I have only jack-high with a weak backdoor draw, and calling would require too much equity against the flop bet.

On the button with a suited hand, a small open has good fold equity against two blinds and position if called; I can release cheaply if pressured.

2♣8♣ is too weak to continue out of position against a button raise, especially with the big blind still to act.

KTs is a strong suited broadway hand well ahead of the button's wide stealing range; calling getting over 2:1 odds is standard and profitable.

Flopped top two pair out of position as the preflop caller; checking to the original aggressor to control the pot and induce c-bets.

I have a spade flush draw plus preflop aggressor status, and seat_2's check suggests weakness, so a half-pot semi-bluff can take it down or build a pot when I hit.

I flopped top two pair on a paired board. Calling keeps opponent's bluffs in and controls the pot against better kickers or trips.

I turned a full house with Kings full of Jacks. Checking to the aggressive preflop and flop raiser to let them continue barreling.

I only have king-high with a spade draw on a double-paired board; seat_2 checked after calling my flop bet, so I take the free card and try to hit my flush on the river rather than bluff into a likely J or K.

We hold Kings full of Jacks on a paired board where only AA and JJ beat us. A bet targets value from any Jack that made Jacks full of Kings.

Jack-ten suited is a strong button hand three-handed, so I raise for value and initiative while keeping the sizing modest.

Folding 95 offsuit from the small blind facing a button open.

T6o is dominated against a button's 2.5x opening range and calling 150 into a 400 pot with a weak offsuit hand has poor implied odds. Folding preserves chips for better spots.

74o is far too weak to open from the button even in 3-handed play. Standard fold.

Ace-jack suited-ish strong on the button in 3-handed play; raising for value and position with a standard 3x open.

8-5 offsuit is too weak to defend against a button raise, especially out of position with the big blind still to act.

K2o is far too weak to defend out of position against a 3bb open from the button.
